They say two heads are better than one, and nowhere is this more evident than in the possibilities that grow out of libraries collaborating on collection development. To encourage these synergies requires systematic planning, selecting appropriate partners, and a longterm commitmentfrom all parties. In this authoritative and practical guide, three leaders whose institutions have successfully collaborated for a decade share their expertise so others can incorporate their winning strategies. They explain the theoretical principles along with realworld strategies and results from their own experiences and from other consortial projects.For those libraries, both public and academic, interested in stretching limited budgets, Collaborative Collection Development provides the keys to: Expanding your collection Improving user access Sharing scarce resources Overcoming barriers to partnering Addressing economic issues Creating a framework for success Promoting and publicizing to attract new usersBuilding from these successful collaborations, librarians, directors, administrators, managers, deans, and team leaders will find practical planning models that include research, budgeting, promotion, and evaluation. This comprehensive guide contains all the checklists, case studies, sample agreements, and references needed to facilitate collaborative initiatives.

I appreciate the practical approach of this guide, but I feel like it skimmed over some important details that would have been helpful. The examples are good, yet I wanted more in-depth strategies for specific challenges. Still, it’s a decent starting point for new librarians!

Not What I Expected
Honestly, I was a bit disappointed with this guide. The information felt outdated, and some sections were confusing to navigate. I expected more from a collaborative collection development book. I wouldn't recommend it unless you're desperate for resources.

A Must-Have for Library Managers
This guide is super practical and well-organized! As a library manager, I found the step-by-step processes very helpful for developing our collection. The case studies really illustrate the concepts, making it easy to apply them. Definitely worth adding to our library’s resources!
